Reflected Darkness

Sport's Festival

Hannei woke up alone about 20 minutes before her alarm in one of the bedrooms in the 2-bedroom apartment. She was used to this now as her new caretaker was her Aunt. She was going to freak out for a moment upon waking but remembered she was placed here almost 2 weeks ago.

Her adoptive parents refused contact and even refused contact from the Administration at the school. She was in limbo of sorts while legally, she was in her Aunt's care but her own self was spinning in circles. She quickly changed into her uniform and listened to the chirping of birds outside in contrast to the morning news that came from the TV in the front room. 

She walked out of her assigned bedroom, looking for her aunt. "Kayama-sensei...I mean, Aunt Nemuri?" Hannei called out, hoping for a response but was greeted with silence. The hero must be at the school already to prepare for the big event today.

She decided to text Dabi before anyone else as she waited for her toast.

Me: Good Morning Blue. I will have to message you after school today because today is the big event. I hope to tell you about it later and I hope to make you proud. 🙇‍♀️

She wasn't expecting a reply before her phone dings. It was Kimi though, making her frown slightly.

Kimi👩🏻: Oi! The others and I are waiting outside. If you want a REAL breakfast (not just toast, girl), LET'S GO!

She nearly yelled as she slipped on her shoes, grabbed her bag and ran towards the door. Beside the door was a photo of a couple with toddlers. The woman looked similar to her aunt with an exception that her hair was white with the same blue eyes. She was holding a little boy who has the same eyes as her but black hair with a white streak while a little girl was being held by a man. The man had the same silver eyes as Hannei but black hair and was in a white suit as the woman was in a hero costume of a skirt, blouse and stockings with heels. 

She bowed to the photo, after having her aunt explain things to her that this was Hannei's family, of her biological parents and older twin brother hanging on the wall before speaking. "Have a good day Keiko, Hibiki and Riku. I will do my best today."

She ran outside to see 3 boys and her best friend, all standing on the street. She smiled and greeted them with a bow from inside the gate leading into the apartment building. "Good morning Kimi. Good morning Bakugo-san. Good Morning Kamanari-san. Good morning Midorya-san." 

"Nei-Nei! Angry Pomeranian here was telling me a lie that you are dating him." Kimi whined and all Hannei could do was blush. "Wait, What?!?! You are actually dating him?!?!"

"Oi! I am standing right here!" Bakugo yells as Raijin interrupted.

"She is technically dating Blasty-Babe, Izuku and I all at the same time. It is one big polyamory relationship." Raijin warned her.

"Kimi, you must keep it a secret. Please." Hannei begged as her best friend sighs in defeat.

"Fine, let's go get food before we miss today. I am beyond excited!" Kimi practically yelled as Raijin chuckled at her enthusiastic behavior.

May 5th, that is a date that is now ingrained in the young woman's head for the past week. She has been training for that day for the last 2 weeks. She now can shadowlock her entire class plus a few others for a few minutes and she has practiced her mirror side before having a nose bleed. She can now look like anyone thanks to Ojiro-san's training with her.

She awkwardly walked with the others. They had not bothered her as she had expected after it was all over the news about her grandparents. All she would tell them was her grandparents got arrested and that their teacher was really her Aunt who now has custody of her. They had been supportive, loving and even willing to listen to her but she wasn't ready to tell them about her real and obviously missing family.
